MATT RIDLEY'S 10 TESTS TO PERSUADE HIM THAT CURRENT CLIMATE POLICY MAKES SENSE

Posted 3 February 2013

Noted UK scientisty and author Dr Matt Ridley lists10 questions in answer to: " What it would take to persuade me that current climate policy makes sense?" He has written about climate change and energy policy for more than 25 years and has come to the conclusion that current energy and climate policy is probably more dangerous, both economically and ecologically, than climate change itself. This is not the same as arguing that climate has not changed or that mankind is not partly responsible. That the climate has changed because of man-made carbon dioxide he fully accepts. What he does not accept is that the change is or will be damaging, or that current policy would prevent it.
